Our Mission

American Slander was created as a weapon in the war against intelligence. It’s a soapbox for the progressive, the radical, the artist and the rebel to make their voice heard. It coalesced around six basic themes we see as critical to the long-term health and safety of America. They are learning, progress, justice, empathy, creativity and beauty. We hope to convey these themes through the vehicles of knowledgeable exposition, activist journalism, satirical fiction, radical argument, and provocative art.

American Slander is a haven for the educated, the innovative and the creative during these dark days of our wounded nation. And it’s a line in the sand where this country’s forces of willful ignorance must give pause. They shall not pass.
